arXiv:2607. 13047v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parameter decomposition (PD) decomposes neural networks into interpretable computational components that faithfully reflect the original network's operations.
arXiv:2607. 02964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A central goal of mechanistic interpretability is to understand how neural networks work and what each individual component does.
arXiv:2606. 07414v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparsity allows scaling model parameters without proportionally increasing computational cost.
arXiv:2606. 27538v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce the context-ready transformer, a new recurrent neural network architecture built from a D-layer transformer block that pre-contextualizes each token before it enters the block.
arXiv:2510. 25013v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability aims to reverse-engineer large language models (LLMs) into human-understandable computational circuits.
arXiv:2602. 22600v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Training selects for behavior, not circuitry: many weight configurations can implement the same function.
arXiv:2607. 00510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowing which training examples drive outputs is fundamental to auditing, correcting, and understanding language models, yet for modern LLMs this remains expensive, approximate, and largely post-hoc.
arXiv:2608. 08888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive transformers compute along two axes: horizontally across generated tokens, and vertically through model depth.
arXiv:2607. 11193v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To ensure the overall quality of AI-enabled software, not only traditional software components but also AI components need to be tested and repaired.
arXiv:2606. 17522v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep neural networks are widely believed to derive their expressive power from their ability to form \textbf{hierarchical representations}, capturing progressively more abstract and compositional features across layers.
Scaling Large Language Models (LLMs) has been driven mainly by enlarging the Transformer backbone, but for an already-strong model this requires another round of costly pretraining. We study whether an existing backbone can keep improving by allocating more computation to each token while leaving the Transformer backbone fixed.
arXiv:2606. 15796v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability seeks to explain neural network behavior by decomposing model computations into interpretable features and circuits.
arXiv:2606. 26396v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pre-trained transformers have demonstrated remarkable generalization abilities, at times extending beyond the scope of their training data.
